House signature dishes are osso bucco, half rack of lamb and Charlie’s steak au poivre, where filet mignon medallions are coated with cracked peppercorns and sauteed with shallots, Dijon, cognac and cream. Several sides are steakhouse fries, garlic mashed potatoes, risotto-style orzo pasta and sauteed mushrooms. Popular appetizers are calamari, stuffed mushrooms, New England crab cakes and oysters Rockefeller. There are soups (lobster bisque, French onion), salads (wedge, Caesar, chopped) and desserts, including bananas Foster, New York cheesecake, flourless chocolate cake and after-dinner coffees such as Keoke and Monte Cristo (Kahlua, Grand Marnier, whipped cream).
